Beautiful, valuable, and companionable, alpacas are a great addition to

suburban one. Learn more about these easy to love animals and what it

We are making progress on the new GLAA website; our hope is that it will be up
and running early 2010. This will give members more options for advertising
as it will have the capacity for each farm to post pictures as well as make
it more useful for the general public to learn more about the industry. In the meantime, if you have any issues placing your information on the current site, please contact Tom Olson, tom@fevoldenfarm.com or Peggy Emmerich, enchantedmeadows@hotmail.com for assistance. Please place "GLAA" in the subject line of your email.
If you do have an event you would like published, email Tom Olson with the details and it will be posted on the website calendar. Continue to monitor the calendar here periodically as new items are being added. We encourage you to take advantage of opportunities for learning more about alpacas. Watch for news of our next GLAA hosted education event coming up early 2009.
